The name Blair is derived from the Gaelic ‘Blar’ meaning open space or field, and consequently can be found in many different place names across Scotland. It was originally spelled ‘Blare’ but this form of the name has long since died out.

Although many people share the surname of Blair, it is generally accepted that the clan name refers to two different clans, one originating in Ayrshire – the Blairs of Blair, and one from Perthshire – the Blairs of Balthayock.
